At the present time, there are no Rocky Mountain States with coasts on any ocean. At some point in Earth's history part of this vast area was submerged as evidenced by ocean creature's fossils being discovered there. There is pessimistic speculation that, in the future, parts of the Rocky Mountain states will have ocean fronts when the San Andreas fault blows and California "falls into the sea." It could happen instantly in true polar wander or a great perturbation.
none of the oceans touch the rocky mountain states because they are all in the middle of the U.S.
The Continental Divide in the United States is located in the Rocky Mountains. It runs from north to south along the crest of the Rockies, dividing the watersheds that flow to the Pacific Ocean from those that flow to the Atlantic Ocean.
The river which forms part of the border between the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean is the Columbia River.
They flow in the Pacific Ocean.
pacific ocean touches the contiguous of the united states.
The RockiesMore specifically, the Western Continental Divide or the "Great Divide", the 'line' which marks where rainfall flows either ultimately toward the Pacific Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico, runs through the states of Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico, predominately in the Rocky Mountains. There is also an Eastern Continental Divide among others - see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:NorthAmericaDivides.gifThe Rocky Mountains.

Snow storms in the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains form when moist air is forced to rise over the mountains, leading to cooling and condensation of water vapor into snow. The moisture for these storms can come from nearby bodies of water, such as the Atlantic Ocean for the Appalachian Mountains and the Pacific Ocean for the Rocky Mountains.
Atlantic Ocean touches 12, or 13 if you count DC, and the Pacific Ocean touches five different US states..
The Atlantic Ocean touches North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Lewis and Clark crossed the Rocky Mountains during their expedition in the early 1800s. They also navigated other mountain ranges, such as the Bitterroot and the Blue Mountains, as they journeyed to the Pacific Ocean.
